書籍簡介

The perfect book for young readers looking to explore some of life's biggest questions. Thousands of years ago, ancient philosophers asked some important questions: "What is real?", "What is everything made of?", "Why does evil exist?", and "What can I know?" These questions have gone on to spark passionate debates about our existence and how we understand the world around us. In this engaging and accessible introduction to philosophy, readers aged 11 will be introduced to a variety of philosophical ideas through the teachings of Plato, Confucius, Simone de Beauvoir, and many more.

Vibrant, reader-friendly illustrations bring the history of ideas and thinking to life, and provide topics for reflection and debate. With biographies of the most influential philosophers from around the world, young readers will explore the questions that have been fundamental to the development of scientific study, logical thinking, religious beliefs, freedom in society, and much more. Thought experiments peppered throughout will help to connect readers with the theories presented so they can apply them to their own lives.

A collection of the most important ideas in the history of thought, packed with illustrations to engage readers and stimulate discussion.

DK是1974年Peter Kindersley和Christopher Dorling建立的圖書出版公司，公司名為DK。他們的願景就是創作既有視覺衝擊力又包含信息豐富的圖書，使讀者能夠理解每一個主題。DK圖書被認為是從出生到年老不斷學習的生活指南。 DK在開始的時候像一個工作室，為其他出版商創作圖書，並且從那時候國際化就成為DK圖書的重要理念。 使用更多的圖片使DK圖書在一開始就與眾不同，它強調圖文並茂，這使DK圖書更易於閲讀和理解。
